about us

how much experience do your models have?

we pride ourselves on bringing everyday people local to our studios into our model directory. this allows us to celebrate diversity. accessibility & inclusivity. we offer a wide range of relatable models who have different levels of experience in production. all soona models undergo a test shoot and all operate under the same soona standards and expectations.

what if I don't need a model for the entire shoot?

we suggest you make a booking dedicated to just model shots. this may mean you create two bookings - one for model photos and another for non-model photos. for example: if you need 16 photos with no model and 12 photos with a hand model - we suggest you book one hand model shoot in the 10-15 photo range. and book another shoot without a model in the 16-25 photo range. if you have special shoot needs or need help with booking reach out to hey@soona.co for suggestions!

do I need to join my shoot if I book a model?

yes! attendance is mandatory for all shoots with models. this is to ensure that you can give live feedback to the model(s) and we can capture your content just the way you need it. if you are not in attendance for your virtual shoot with models - we will shoot for 1 hour. in these cases: if you would like more content with the model(s) you must create another booking.

what's the process of booking and scheduling a model?

1. create a booking on book.soona.co
2. select the number of images you are looking to purchase
3. select your models and any upgrades
4. pay the model booking fee and book your shoot
5. select your top model preferences + model details in your created booking's pro services tab
6. sit back and relax as we book your most preferred available model
7. join your shoot + watch the magic happen!

where can I browse the models that soona offers?

all of our models for each city are featured on models.soona.co. you will be able to select your top choice models for your shoot after you book. if you need more specific details on the models (such as measurements) we will be able to supply those details for you during or after your selection process.

how do soona prices compare to a modeling agency?

you pay a one-time fee for every soona model and that's it! there are no usage and renewal fees - so you never have to worry about where or when you can use your content! model prices at modeling agencies can be variable and booking fees can differ from model to model. there are also usage + renewal fees to use the content after the shoot and there may be extra fees added due to contract negotiations.

what do I need to do after I book?

ship your products and share what you want to create. not sure what shots you need? soona has packs that make it SUPER easy for you. check them out here!

what to expect during your shoot:

your creative team will closely follow the predetermined shot list. but wait. there’s more! our team will take as many photos as we can in our allotted time slot allowing you to always come back and re-shop your gallery for the standard $39 a la carte pricing.

I'M SO HAPPY TO HAVE FOUND THIS SOLUTION
I had my first shoot at soona a few weeks ago and really loved the experience! It was so easy to get my products to their studio. Once received, my appointment was booked right away and it was so awesome to be involved during the shoot to provide feedback. I'm so happy to have found this solution for photography and highly recommend!
